Abstract
The X-ray structural investigation of [(n-C 4H 9)N] 3[Ce(NCS) 2(NO 3 4] ( I) has been carried out by means of three-dimensional singlecrystal diffractometry. The title compound I crystallizes in space group Cc (No. 9, Z = 4). The lattice constants are a = 16.577(3), b = 18.136(4), c = 24.006(5) A ̊ , β = 91.31(3) ° . A full-matrix least-squares refinement yielded a final reliability ( R) factor of 0.062 based on 2859 unique reflections. The coordination about the cerium central atom is ten and the geometric polyhedron is bicapped dodecahedral. The molecules in the crystal lattice are held together by van der Waals forces. Selected bond distances and angles are presented and discussed as well as synthesis and peripheral studies.
